Augrented Insights Report for 2530 Foster Avenue

The 24-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building at 2530 Foster Avenue in Flatbush, owned by Dov Rakower and constructed in 1931, has experienced significant maintenance challenges in recent years. Most notably, from late 2024 to mid-2025, there were multiple plumbing-related issues, including several emergency water supply complaints and plumbing maintenance problems involving basins/sinks. The building has also faced recurring issues with pest control, particularly evident in multiple 2025 complaints that HPD inspectors were unable to access during their visits.

This pattern of inaccessibility for inspections, while not directly indicating poor conditions, raises concerns about communication and access protocols. The property has documented plumbing violations from late 2024, including problems with sinks in multiple units (particularly in Apartments 2A and 3B), water leaks, and various other maintenance issues. In 2024, violations were issued regarding electrics, door/window functionality, and cosmetic repairs, particularly affecting unit 3B.

Historical data shows recurring inspection access issues in response to complaints between 2018 and 2022, including attempts to address concerns about illegal conversions and boiler problems. On a positive note, the building has maintained a consistent record of zero bedbug infestations since 2018, and a rodent inspection in 2018 resulted in a passing grade. Recent permits issued in 2018-2019 suggest regular maintenance and updating of building systems, though the frequency and nature of recent complaints indicate ongoing building maintenance challenges.
